Personally, mine or organized alpha by author, and then for authors that i have multiple titles from i do alpha by title unless it’s a series in which case I put those in release order. I have a lot of friends though who do alpha by title, or spine color, or even genre based organizing. I’m curious to hear if any of yall have any special way you keep your books and why you like your way best!

Haphazardly generally, but with many books by one author arranged chronologically, short story collections to the right.
Genre based for me
I collect one particular author, and I organized his books by publication date. All my other books are by genre or subject matter.
Author/series/release date.
I can’t get into the spine colour no matter how nice it looks. I have mine set up by genre and then organized there by the author
Genre and then I just group by author but it’s not alphabetically, usually more aesthetic appeal
However you want and will make you happy, because it will make you happy.
Most of my shelves are organized by broad topics, then by author, then by title within author, except for series, which gets organized in the series order. For graphic novels, I organize them by title.
Grouped by genre, then author.
